must get out



I dug up these linen pants I forgot I bought in Chicago a while back because I was curious about how they would look with my combat boots, and how I could use the black and white together. I decided to keep it simple on top, nothing too overwhelming. That's why I used my navy cardigan and deep cranberry scarf. Nathalie and I got these shots right before it started to monsoon yesterday. It actually flooded the shopping strip right down from my house that's how much rain we got. I leave for Vancouver in 10 days so the countdown is really on now! Wish me luck everyone :)

thinking bout you

 
Sorry for taking so long to post more pictrues up, but anyways here's my second look from my long weekend in Canmore. I love my new boots! They just have to most fantastic shape, and like my Michael Kors watch, they go with almost everything I wear! One thing about this outfit I especially like is the tones that my Ralph Lauren denim shirt bring out in my khakis, which show a range of tones depending on what their paired with. I'll try and post a new look tomorrow, I was out taking pictures with Nathalie today :)

anna sun



Continuing on with my set of looks from the long weekend in Canmore, this is my favourite. I found this cardigan at All Saints when I was in Chicago last month and I must say that both the cardigan and the store are my new favourites. I love how the multiple patters in the cardigan make it look quintessentially mountainous and warm. Even though it was blisteringly hot this past weekend, in the cool evenings, this cardigan was my best friend. I hope everyone enjoys this look as much as I do!
The title of this look comes from the song Anna Sun by Walk the Moon. I know I'm about one summer late on this song, but if anyone gets a chance, it's definitely worth a listen!!

walk a little tightrope







I do apologise for not posting in a while; it's been a very busy summer for me so far. Here's an update: I leave for Vancouver in 18 days, and as a result I will not have a lot of new posts for a while. I will only post what pictures I took over the long weekend in Canmore.
This is my cousin Maddie. She may seem familiar because I posted last fall with pictures of her. Anyways, this is the first post of her outfits and I wanted to feature the maxi-mullet skirt. I love the flow and shape that these skirts give to any figure, and they should honestly be a staple in any female wardrobe. They can be paired with many different tops, as evident here with a flowy white top and a beaded peach tank. As well, the sheer material adds a very cool dynamic to the outfits, without being too revealing. 
The bottom right picture is a sneak peek of my latest outfit that I will be posting hopefully within the next two days. I hope everyone enjoys these looks! Feel free to comment even without a Google account.

hard to fake what I wont be




Well I am officially done my first diploma of the semester, which mean only two more to go! My hope is that now that it is summer and I've got a ton of birthday money left to spend, I'll be more inspired and have more time to post :) This looks combines two new articles I got last week. The first is my red, green, and navy plaid shirt I got from Club Monaco. The second is my new pride and joy: the espresso Michael Kors watch my parents got me! I am overwhelmingly in love with it because I cannot think of an outfit I've worn that it would not go with! I wanted to keep this look earthy, so I decided my khakis and simple brown Steve Madden boots would be appropriate. I hope everyone likes it and don't forget, anyone can comment regardless of whether or not you have a Google account!

a face to call home



My problem at first with this outfit is what to do with the seemingly endless navy of my Club Monaco sweater. I decided I would experiment with neck accessorise, so I put my mother's leaf necklace and my H&M scarf with my paisley bow tie. I liked the way the gold, cream and blues all meshed together. I also want to show off my new cream fabric loafers I got on Wednesday that are literally the most comfy things in the world.
The next two and a bit weeks are going to be jam-packed with dance, school, and work so I'm not expecting to be posting for a while. However, once I get over school I'll have much more time!
AND ITS MY 18TH TOMORROW !
